Blake Lively is flashing back to her high school days where she tried a wild hack to get those plump lips!
Taking to her Instagram stories on Tuesday, October 29, the It Ends with Us actress shared two stories where she embraced the generational change as she tried Gen Z makeup hack while looking back at what Millennials used to do to get their lips look “huge.”
In the first story, the actress had her hair tied back and was seen wearing glam makeup with her glossy lips all plumped using a Gen Z makeup trick, as she took a selfie apparently in her bathroom.
“When @cgonzalezbeauty does the Gen Z eye shadow lip trick to make your lips look huge…,” Lively captioned the snap.
The Green Lantern actress continued, “But then..,” as she took off her makeup.
Then came the second story with Lively’s makeup-free face. Revealing a shocking trick she used to apply to plump her lips back in the high school days, Blake Lively wittily captioned her photo.
“You wash off your makeup and accept that you are a millennial girl who, in high school used to wear lip gloss with alarming amounts of chili peppers inside for a plump because we were THAT committed to bad ideas,” wrote the actress.
Quipping about those days, Blake Lively noted, “Turns out eyeshadows are way less painful than Carolina Reapers,” referencing the hottest chili pepper in the world as per the Guinness World Records.
Thanking her makeup artist, the actress joked, “Thank you @cgonzalezbeauty for not turning my mouth into an episode of Hot Ones.”
For the uninformed, Hot Ones is a popular YouTube series that features celebrities eating chicken wings having different levels of hot sauces.
On the personal front, Blake Lively recently attended Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour with husband Ryan Reynolds after celebrating his 48th birthday with a Broadway musical show.
